Lyrics

Secrets

He lived next door
We were like brothers
If you couldn't find one
You just looked for the other
I liked Mary jane
When we were twelve
And I made him swear
That he'd never tell
And he said, "I'll keep it a Secret forever"

Line drive foul ball
He'd swung too late
Through old man Murphy's window
Now there'll be hell to pay
Hiding in the tree house
That summer day
I understood
What he couldn't say
And I'll keep it a Secret forever

In a loud cafe years down the line
We spilled our Secrets
Across the rable of time
Broken promises, the love I'd lost
No matter how big or small, he kept them all

And my first thought
Before I cried
When the voice on the phone
Said he had died
Was that I would never
Share again
That part of me
They bury with him
And I'll keep it a Secret forever
